Statistical profile of the media and culture sector

This profile aims to analyse the wealth of data on the media and culture sector (MCS) and its sub-sectors, using as a starting point economic activities rather than occupational profiles. While this provides an opportunity to highlight the overall employment contribution of the sector (i.e. through its artists, professionals, technicians, and non-talent-based workers), it may not fully highlight the significant differences in working hours, contractual arrangements and employment status that exist among the various occupational profiles that characterize this diverse and vibrant sector.
